Seeing that this is the Help - English forum then it makes sense to use English :)

But it isn't necessary because instead of new code we can use numbers ;-)
I suppose even users, who use only Yiddish, Chinese, Arabic, etc understand numbers.
It's funny I have problem to remember even polish names of skills ;-) And still sometimes I make mistake between 16 and 17 ;-) Because words, which describe these skills in polish are synonims.
But if these skills are presented numerically it's almost impossible to make mistake ;-)

Well my intention was not that...one of my mentees' manager sent me the skills in this language and I didn't understand what they were in terms of the lvls, so I decided to ask here...If I don't know what they are, obviously I couldn't have expressed in numbers. And if I did, I wouldn't have asked the question here.

If somebody asks on this forum it's better for him if he describes skills numerically, not in English. Because if he uses numbers I can help him, whilst he use english names of skill I ignore his question because I don't know english names ;-)
It's not the same to know English and to know names of skills in English. Because order of skills isn't intuitive.
I know few users from Poland, who of course know Polish but they don't know polish names of skills. Because they joined to BB when polish version wasn't complete and therefore they use only english names and they never teached polish names. And they always ask me to use english names of skills. But I don't know english names so I describe skills numerically and everybody is happy ;-)

Everybody who play in BB has to know arabic numbers. Because results of matches (tables, minutes, statistic, etc) in every language in BB are presented by arabic numbers. If I talk about numbers I mean arabic numbers. These 10 signs are universal (0-9).

Yes, I suppose when I talk about every man on whole world (who can read and write in any language and who uses internet).
But I'm sure when I talk about every user in BB (because if somebody didn't know arabic numbers then he couldn't recognize who is winner of match or how many minutes his players need to get full training, etc) ;-)

Great work!

I also think some of the Polish words sound funny. Tragiczny and slaby sound bad but sprawny sounds muscular and good.

But why do you want American English? Surely the Queen's English would be perfect?
